I am WAY LATE to this thread...But, as you can tell from all of the previous posts , A Grand Time Was Had By All in Waterloo! One thing that happened that I don't remember reading being posted was the "storm front" that blew though on Saturday evening while mikefortune, the_faction, Brian V, and I were settling into a beverage while sitting out on the bar patio. Out of nowhere, winds started gusting with such force that we had to hold our beverages and the table!!! No rain fell, but the wind was whipping around for about 20 minutes! ----- And...yeah...there was NO WAY that a B/W Invincible Kraken card was making its way to a Promoter's collection that was not attending in person (well okay...other than TOM ). There are more and I am sure they will find their way into future auctions, but over GalactiCon Weekend they needed to be for "those in attendance in person". (I had to make a principled stand. )

I completely supported the in person auction bidding even if I was in no financial position to contribute (beer is expensive in Iowa. Or at least it is in mass quantities).

That is why you gotta bring it with you!

Can’t wait for GCom this year. Gonna be there for at least one night in the hotel & I expect to raise hell. Grew up on the Nature Boy & I intend to live up to his legacy. Swarm, Vegas, Todd, KB and hopefully Grant, Will, Broc, Pete, Troy and the Olsen Boys (etc.) are ready to go!
